What You Need to Know When Writing a dissertation
From: Dr. Wendy Carter
What will it take for you to complete your dissertation?
If you know anything about me, you know I am dismayed by the fact that half of all graduate students never get their degree, simply because they never finish their dissertation. I know that just doesn't have to be the case.
I am passionate about helping graduate students get their degree. That's why I travel to universities and colleges throughout the U.S. to share what I have learned about how to finish writing a dissertation. These workshops have helped hundreds and hundreds of students find their way through the dissertation writing maze.
